Product description
The Intruder 46S is a compact sinking minnow built for finesse presentations around clear water bass. At 46mm and 5 grams it casts easily on light spinning gear and settles with a slow, horizontal fall that triggers strikes from fish holding tight to cover or suspended over deeper structure.
Its tight wobble and subtle side flash mimic small baitfish, making it a strong choice for pressured smallmouth and finesse-minded largemouth in ponds, rivers, and rock-lined lakes. Twitch it through current seams or work it slow along drop-offs where bigger reaction baits get refused.
How to fish it
- Cast past target cover and let the lure sink to the desired depth before starting your retrieve.
- Use short, sharp twitches with slack line to make the bait dart and flash like a fleeing baitfish.
- Pause between twitches to let the lure fall naturally, this is when most strikes happen.
- Slow the retrieve in cold water or high fishing pressure, speed it up when bass are actively chasing.
Frequently asked
Yes, the 46mm size is a finesse profile that works well for smallmouth bass and largemouth in clear or pressured water where subtle baits outperform larger ones.
Use natural, trout-pattern colors in clear water and brighter or higher-contrast finishes in stained or low-light conditions to help bass locate the bait.
A light to medium spinning rod paired with 4 to 8 pound fluorocarbon or light braid with a fluorocarbon leader gives the best action and casting distance for a bait this size.
It performs well year-round but really shines in spring and fall for smallmouth bass, and works as a finesse option for largemouth in clear lakes and rivers.
